Here is how you make the blocks:
Sew together 9 squares - mine were 5". Cut on the diagonal from corner to corner. Mix up your 'triangles' so you have a variety of colors and then pick two. Put them together with the large squares across from each other - (image 4.) Sew together and trim all the same size.
If you like a particular fabric - place it where it will NOT be cut on the diagonal - Image 3 above shows this the best. Each 'triangle' will always have a 'focus' square - use your prettiest fabric there.
Here are 4 blocks. By being mindful when you do the layout - you can make a little diamond in the middle and larger diamonds (see BIG arrows!)
White dimple dot minky with Aurifil 50wt. thread Muslin (#2311) on the front and white (#2024) on the back. Quilted on the seams with a wavy stitch and new #14 needle.
